contents Understanding the optical properties of various components in water Cherenkov (WC) neutrino experiments is essential for accurate detector characterization, which is critical for precise measurements. Of particular importance is the characterization of surface reflectivity within the Cherenkov volume. We present a methodology for surface reflectivity characterization using a goniometer setup, addressing the challenges associated with measurements in the air and water (or other optical media). Additionally, we discuss the broader implications of Bidirectional Reflectance Distribution Function (BRDF) measurements using a goniometer, including their industrial applications.
